“Latino Art Now! provides a unique forum for scholars, curators,
collectors, arts professionals, and artists to engage with the critical
issues for Latino art in the 21st century”

-Chon A. Noriega, Director, UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center

“Latinos and Latinas have always created American Art-- yet
American Art history hasn’t always included Latinos and Latinas.
Current research projects, publications, and dialogs about Latino
art, artists, and institutions are exploding and expanding art
historical myths of what Latino art is. It is a thrilling time to be in
the field.”

“Latino Art Now! 2013 is the fourth annual convening of scholars to
discuss the analysis, interpretation, and historical development of
U.S. Latino art. Please join us at this exciting gathering!”

-Dr. Tomás Ybarra Frausto

“Latino Art Now! is the premier venue designed to explore the full
richness and depth of Latino art. We look forward to welcoming
the public and a whole community of scholars and artists who
are eager to dialogue about the wide ranging scope of Latino
artistic production in the United States. Timed to coincide with
the exhibition Our America: The Latino Presence in American Art,
presented at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington
DC will be the place to be in the Fall of 2013. We look forward to
your participation!”

-Carmen E. Ramos, Curator, Smithsonian American Art Museum

evolve and acknowledge the contributions of new Latino talent.”
